Hi,
I've been trying in vain to add constraints to a xforms. What I am trying to do is to make sure the user will enter an integer in a certain field. I found easy to test the length of a field or others things using Xpath functions, but I dont see how I can test the type or how I can use regular expressions.
In the code below, the user can enter a 2 characters string, even if the type is an integer. How can I prevent the user from entering anything else than numbers ?
Regards
Pierre Busnel
PS: By the way, I think Xforms is the "next big thing". Or I'll be damned to try to understand how it works for nothing !!
